When Plankton, Karen, and SpongeBob throw a party at the [[Chum Bucket]], SpongeBob gets tricked into putting his face on a copy machine. Plankton puts the copier on "Scan" and it scans SpongeBob. He clicks print and makes a SpongeBob clone the next day and then colors the tie blue with a marker.
When Plankton, Karen, and SpongeBob throw a party at the [[Chum Bucket]], SpongeBob gets tricked into putting his face on a copy machine. Plankton puts the copier on "Scan" and it scans SpongeBob. He clicks print and makes a SpongeBob clone the next day and then colors the tie blue with a marker.


The next day, at the [[Krusty Krab]], the copy walks over to the real SpongeBob, who befriends him and calls him "Me Two," and they work for Mr. Krabs. Squidward goes crazy because he thinks he is dreaming, causing him to beat up the customers and Mr. Krabs. To Plankton's shock, Me Two refuses to tell Plankton the formula because of the friendship he formed with SpongeBob, so Plankton makes another copy and tries again; however, SpongeBob ends up befriending that copy as well, calling him "Me Three," thus he also refuses to tell the formula.

To Plankton's shock, Me Two refuses to tell Plankton the formula because of the friendship he formed with SpongeBob, so Plankton makes another copy and tries again; however, SpongeBob ends up befriending that copy as well, calling him "Me Three," but he also refuses to tell the formula.


Plankton makes 305 more clones to ask for the formula, but then, after they find out what the formula is twice, they intercept the real SpongeBob's chore duties. Suddenly, Me Two turns into a light gray hue and SpongeBob suggests he's getting sick and offers to take him home. Upon asking where he's from, Me Two tells SpongeBob he came from the Chum Bucket, causing SpongeBob to find out that one of his copies was made to steal the secret formula. SpongeBob confronts Plankton outside, but all of a sudden, Me Two scrunches up, then rolls up into the shape of a burrito in mid-air before vanishing out of existence. SpongeBob is shocked, Plankton revealing he used cheap toner to make the clones, before he asks the other copies about the formula, but is foiled when the other clones quickly vanish as well and SpongeBob cries for his loss of his friends. Mr. Krabs comes with the paychecks for the copies, and the final clone disappears. When Plankton comes out to find another SpongeBob, he asks for the formula before he disappears, but it was the real SpongeBob. SpongeBob is still sad for the loss of the clones, treating them like they were his friends, but Plankton says that the citizens are better with one SpongeBob.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
===General===
===General===
*When Plankton tries to convince SpongeBob he has yellow jaundice and cannot go to work, he is presumably referring to SpongeBob's "skin color." However, yellow jaundice causes the sclera (white part of the eyes) to be yellow, and this is interesting as characters on the show, including Plankton, have a yellow sclera.
*This episode confirms that Plankton has tattooed a picture of himself in a graduation gown, graduation cap, and eyeglass onto Karen's hard drive.
*In the [[Губка Боб Квадратные Штаны|Russian dub]], after original SpongeBob arrives to Krusty Krab, Squidward, instead of saying, "I said "Whatever," says, "You already said that to me."{{Citation needed}}
*This is the second episode where SpongeBob gets cloned. The first is "[[Overbooked]]."
*This episode confirms that Plankton has tattooed a picture of himself in a graduation gown, graduation cap, and eyeglass onto Karen's hard drive. It can possibly be assumed that Plankton built Karen in school, possibly college, as evidenced from episodes such as "[[Friend or Foe]]" and "[[Komputer Overload]]" that he built Karen, and episodes such as "[[Plankton!]]," "[[Pineapple Invasion]]," and "[[Karen's Baby]]" that he went to college, and likely had his graduation picture tattooed onto her hard drive.
*This is the second episode where Patrick gets shredded by a lawnmower. The first is "[[Born to Be Wild]]."
*This episode confirmed that at the time, Plankton never had children.
 
**However, this is later contradicted in "Karen's Baby" with the introduction of [[Chip Plankton II]].
===Dub facts===
**This is still technically true, since Plankton doesn't have any biological children.
*In the [[Губка Боб Квадратные Штаны|Russian dub]], after the original SpongeBob arrives to Krusty Krab, Squidward, instead of saying, "I said 'Whatever,'" says, "You already said that to me."
*The SpongeBob clones disappearing as a result of Plankton trying to save money on ink is a reference to how expensive his inventions and experiments can be, which begs the question as to how he can afford to pay for them all, as he has no customers and was revealed in "[[Move It or Lose It]]" to be in debt, possibly broke.
*This episode marks Karen's first speaking role since ''[[The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water]]''.
*This is the first episode in the series to have a title card with the title words being repeated more than twice.
*This is the second episode in the series where SpongeBob gets cloned. The first was "[[Overbooked]]."
*This is the second episode in the series where Patrick gets shredded by a lawnmower. The first was "[[Born to Be Wild]]."
*This was the fourth episode to premiere for the [[May 2016 premiere week]].
*In the [[SpongeBob Kanciastoporty|Polish dub]], this episode is called "KseroBob Kopioporty," which translates to "PhotocopyBob CopyPants."

Synopsis

File:CopyBob DittoPants 133.png
The SpongeBob copies marching into the Krusty Krab.

When Plankton, Karen, and SpongeBob throw a party at the Chum Bucket, SpongeBob gets tricked into putting his face on a copy machine. Plankton puts the copier on "Scan" and it scans SpongeBob. He clicks print and makes a SpongeBob clone the next day and then colors the tie blue with a marker.

The next day, at the Krusty Krab, the copy walks over to the real SpongeBob, who befriends him and calls him "Me Two," and they work for Mr. Krabs. Squidward goes crazy because he thinks he is dreaming, causing him to beat up the customers and Mr. Krabs. To Plankton's shock, Me Two refuses to tell Plankton the formula because of the friendship he formed with SpongeBob, so Plankton makes another copy and tries again; however, SpongeBob ends up befriending that copy as well, calling him "Me Three," but he also refuses to tell the formula.

Plankton makes 305 more clones to ask for the formula, making sure they don't come into contact with the real one this time, but then, after they find out what the formula is twice, they intercept the real SpongeBob's chore duties. SpongeBob sees all the clones working and compliments on them. Suddenly, Me Two turns into a light gray hue and SpongeBob suggests he's getting sick and offers to take him home. Upon asking where he's from, Me Two tells SpongeBob he came from the Chum Bucket, causing SpongeBob to find out that one of his copies was made to steal the secret formula. SpongeBob confronts Plankton outside, but all of a sudden, Me Two scrunches up, then rolls up into the shape of a burrito in mid-air before vanishing out of existence. SpongeBob is shocked, Plankton revealing he used cheap toner to make the clones, before he asks the other copies about the formula, but is foiled when the other clones quickly vanish as well and SpongeBob cries for his loss of his friends. Mr. Krabs comes with the paychecks for the copies, and the final clone disappears. When Plankton comes out to find another SpongeBob, he asks for the formula before he disappears, but it was the real SpongeBob. SpongeBob is still sad for the loss of the clones, treating them like they were his friends, but Plankton says that the citizens are better with one SpongeBob.

Squidward, still believing he's in a dream, comes back and then squishes Plankton after trying to fly and Plankton says, "Right on my keys," as the episode ends.
